I haven't updated here recently - but then again, I haven't updated anywhere else recently, either. Still in Japan, still unemployed; I'm planning on sticking around here until September at the earliest. Past that, if I can't find an acceptable job here, then things are up in the air (and would probably mean moving back to the SFBA.) I'm realizing that I really need an office in order to do worklike stuff in any expedient fashion; being holed up in a single room just ain't cutting it for me. Too difficult to concentrate, doesn't have the right kind of work surfaces to do things, etc. It's remarkably difficult to find cafes with WiFi access, too; it seems that role has mostly been assumed by the manga cafes that charge by the hour (and offer individual little rooms, so I infer.)

I've sent my resume to Google for a couple of positions in Tokyo, but I dunno how much interest there is in a niche geek who doesn't speak much Japanese. Ah well.
